Advanced Features

SCENE — A New Level of Operating Ease

Four SCENE buttons make operating the receiver easier than ever. They are initially set to default settings for DVD Movie Viewing, Music Disc Listening, TV Viewing and Radio Listening. Pressing a SCENE button automatically launches a number of operations that initiate play of the source controlled by that button. Other SCENE settings are also available, such as iPod Listening, TV Sports Viewing and Action Game Playing. Browsing and selecting the settings is quickly accomplished by rotating the Input knob and watching the on-screen display. The settings can be selected for one-time use, or they can replace the original default settings. The SCENE names can be changed also.

Improved YPAO Sound Optimisation The RX-V661 has an improved YPAO system that automatically selects the

Audio CD.

High Picture Quality

1080p Compatible HDMI Inputs and Output

This receiver features dual HDMI inputs and one output that support 1080p (1,920 x 1,080 progressive) resolution so users can connect two HDMI sources, such as a DVD player and a high definition set-top box, and enjoy the highest possible quality with a 1080p display.

Video Up-conversion and Component Video Output with TBC

The RX-V661 is equipped with high- definition video up-conversion circuitry incorporating high-performance video encoder/decoders from Analog Devices. A Time Base Corrector (TBC) transforms degraded analogue video signals into a stable format for distortion-free viewing.

crucial frequency bands for the listening room, and adjusts the level of the selected bands to create a cohesive sound field in the room. You can vary the type of the parametric equalizer adjustment among Natural, Flat and Front.

Independent Operation of Zone 2 You can enjoy sound in a separate room (Zone 2) because the RX-V661 provides Zone 2 audio output. Furthermore, Zone 2 power amplifier assignability and speaker terminals mean that Zone 2 can be fully independent with its own 2-channel power, while you still enjoy 5.1-channel sound in the main room.

High Sound Quality

Digital ToP-ART with Superior Audio- Grade Parts and Devices Used Throughout

Yamaha’s Digital ToP-ART concept combines the latest and best technologies, parts and circuit designs to maximize sound quality. These include an 12,000μF custom-made block capacitor, high grade Burr-Brown DACs, and two direct signal path speaker relays and other high quality audio-grade parts. High Current Amplification uses superior components to achieve high current power and low impedance from the low-noise power supply to the speaker terminals.

Pure Direct for Highest Sound Quality Pure Direct is a special receiver mode that causes the signal to bypass all but the most basic audio circuitry, and even turns off the display to prevent any chance of noise interference. It provides the purest possible high fidelity sound from all sources including HDMI inputs.

Surround Realism

Upgraded CINEMA DSP Programmes Yamaha’s popular CINEMA DSP programmes have been upgraded for this receiver. Action and Role playing games deliver awesome sound with the latest game machines. Other programmes have been fine-tuned for even better sound and revised for easier selection.

Compressed Music Enhancer When music is encoded in a digital compressed format such as MP3, frequency response suffers in the high and low ranges. Yamaha employs sophisticated digital signal processing with exclusive algorithms, enabling faithful reproduction of the original music, for the excellent sound quality expected from top class receivers.
